Gym Etiquette for Beginners
Unwritten rules for sharing machines, treadmill time and headphones, plus how to handle being filmed, stared at or told off, and how to stop feeling watchedBy Imad MuratspahicLength3h 2m
About this audiobook
Everyone else seems to know where to stand, how long to stay on the treadmill and what the headphones mean. You never got the rulebook, and nobody is going to hand it to you. Gym Etiquette for Beginners is that rulebook: a friendly, plain-English guide to the unwritten rules of the gym and to the awkward moments nobody warns you about, from being told off on the cardio machines to noticing a phone pointed in your direction. This is not a workout plan and not a lifting program. It will not tell you how many sets to do. It is about behaviour and belonging: what is expected, what is not your fault, and what to say. It is for newcomers of any gender, which sets it apart from strength-training guides that teach you how to lift and from fitness books for a particular age group. Inside, you'll learn: You belong in the gym as much as anyone else. Know the rules, keep a few short scripts in your pocket, and walk in like someone who has been there for years.
